How do you have a fair trial for an a-hole denned up in an Afghan cave. I said nothing about domestic assassinations. Show me an American running around with known terrorists playing jihadist and I'd have no problem taking him out. Are you not concerned that the terrorist we do take out don't get a fair trial/ either?

What does the right to bear arms have to do with this question? Or whether or not I can defend my home?

Question: how many of you would have had the same position if GW Bush were doing this? Playing Devil's advocate here.

I still say we have to trust the CIA to make these decisions on the battlefield. Domestically it's an entirely different situation and the 2nd addresses that.

So what is it about the drones specifically that is objected to? Is it the inability for the target to surrender and have a trial? What is the acceptable alternative? Ground raids with the cooperation of the local government? Would this be satisfactory?
